Robin Hood gets flights to Poland

Wizzair is to be the first airline to begin flights between Doncaster Sheffield’s Robin Hood Airport and Katowice, in the south of Poland.

The airline has said it will begin three flights a week, on Tuesday, Friday and Sunday, from September 19, with single tickets starting from £19.99, including taxes and charges.

József Váradi, chief executive officer of Wizz Air, said: "We are proud to be the first airline to offer low fare flights to Doncaster Sheffield from Central and Eastern Europe.

"Now many more people from this region can easily discover new exciting places, like the beautiful royal city of Krakow or the unique Wieliczka Salt Mine, both in close vicinity of Katowice International Airport."

In April Wizz Air said it would begin flights to Katowice from Dublin, and already flies to the Polish city, as well as Warsaw and Gdansk, from Liverpool.
